Quite pleased with the people behind Pieces today. Submitted a ticket with a screen recording. Ten minutes later they look at it, realise it's complicated, and invite me to book a call with the CTO. I'm impressed.

VOCAB NERDS
Please tell me the difference in technical terms between the following
"It critiques mainstream content" - BAD
"Mainstream content is criticised" - GOOD
This is for an AI prompt, so please tell me what I want to tell it to do and/or what not to do.

One one hand, this large void idiot has a posh fountain that keeps the water fresh. On the other, the tap is dripping. Sure, bud. Okay.

THE DAY OF THE DOCTOR will always be a bit special to me. I was living out in California at the time, and through a sequence of unlikely events, ended up in the main meeting room at Twilio HQ watching it with a bunch of other nerds.

Compression
Zstandard is pretty amazing. It's not going to win any awards for compression ratios (lzip takes that prize ime) but it's FAST.
Really fast.
"Compressing a tar file of Web content from 5Gb to 3.6Gb in 6.9 sec" fast.
Even with a -9 parameter, it only takes 19.06 sec (and compresses to 3.5Gb).

Not sure how I missed it at the time, but the Lemkin Institute have acknowledged the gender critical movement as genocidal.

how to convert javascript to typescript
put question marks fucking everywhere
nail your types down until there's just one infuriating 'any' left
move it somewhere in the depths of your codebase
add a linter ignore directive
pretend it doesn't exist
this is true science.
